Or maybe I just don't have a problem with Shane/Oopsy.  I've known him for a few years now and I've never had a problem with the guy, nor he with me.

As for using Shane's terms, 'Ankle Humpers' is the best description for those that constantely whine about Shane in the MA/CT and then post threads on the boards trying to get him banned.

Shane is funny.  If you don't think he is then you probably just got shot down by him :D

Ever since I was a young boy, I've been quite good at flite simz
From Atari to Ace's High ... I must have played most all of them
But I ain't seen nothing like him, he kills on just a whim,
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure plays a mean flite sim.

He used to be called Oopsy, but now his name is Shane
even while he's smackin' at you, he's shootin' down yer plane,
Plays by intuition, in DA, CT or the main,
That deaf, dumb and blind kid
Sure can be a pain.

He's an AH wizard -
There has to be a twist,
An AH wizard's got
Such a supple wrist.

"How do you think he does it?"
"I don't know!"
"what makes him so good?"

Ain't got no distractions, can't hear no buzzers or vox,
Some call him quite an stunninghunk, others say he rocks,
Always gets multiple kills - and while he does he mocks,
The deaf, dumb and blind kid,
sure can give some knocks.

Never claimed to be,
The flite sim king,
But I'll concede,
That Shane must be the Queen*.

Even flyin' in a Stooka, he can beat my best,
He has a few disciples, they think he's truly blessed,
But I bet it's really a curse, always has to beat his chest,
That deaf, dumb and blind kid,
can't take the same in jest.

*(After all ... it's the deadliest piece on the chessboard.)

;) :D

This is exactly correct. I've never seen Shane turn down a request for help by going to the DA.

I rarely see Shane in the MA, but frequently in the CT. We have had several terrific fights, win some, lose some, some end in a draw. However, I have never heard a complaint if I got him, or a hint of gloating if he got me. Perfect gentleman.

Shane only begins with the smack when encountering guys who run at the drop of a hat, or otherwise refuse to engage when they have every tactical advantage. Really, he's merely expressing what many of us are thinking anyway.

I remember first being introduced to shane in his La-7.  I thought he was a good pilot exploiting a great airplane and getting his kicks out of it.  He taunted everyone in sight, and seemed that he had the biggest chip on his shoulder.  It made me mad when he would nail me too, and figured he was just a guy with a poor self-esteem.  

Then I met him in the DA.  He kicked my butt in everything we flew, and then hung around for as many flights as I wanted to fly and gave me pointers along the way.  It seemed like shane's Dad was flying on his account.  :D  He was very patient and helpful.  He could tell I was just not grasping some of the things he was doing, so he gave me prompts throughout the fight, and even sent me a recording of his film afterwards.  It was pure and genuine concern for my improvement.  

He still kicks my butt, but I have a huge amount of respect for his abilities and his helpfulness.  He may have personality conflicts with many people, but he is ok in my book.

By the way steve, it seemed that you and shane had an ongoing feud in the MA, but I see you are just playing along with his game.  Take care.

First let me say that I would like to apologize to Shane for venting my frustration last night in here.  Shane, you are a Great Virtual Pilot and I Salute you.  

I would also like to apologize to the AH Community for making the post in the first place.  No excuses...it was wrong.

With that... I stand ready for another lesson or two from you Shane.  See you in the Virtual Skies!

I'd wing him anytime but he usually minces the meat on his own.
Nice guy and damned good trainer.

Shane is a  girl. It's actually Shayna.

 That fact alone should piss off even more people.

 Me and shane actually went in together on a flight sim called squeak Warrior once. Alas, our financing fell through.  Kleenex Corp. and  A whinery out of Napa pulled the financial plug right at the end of alpha testing.
